Hello, Dee-Ann. In the United States, authorized mental health professionals use the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders for the classification of mental disorders. ICD-10 Chapter V: Mental and behavioural disorders, part of the International Classification of Diseases produced by the World Health Organization (WHO), is another commonly used guide, more so in Europe and other parts of the world.

You might contact your primary care physician for a referral to a qualified mental health professional for a psychological assessment and a determination if any treatment is indicated.

Good luck.
